Josh Woodward - Learn to Fly

        Today, I finally uploaded this video, How to Make Cafe de Olla, on my YouTube Channel. This time, I used Learn to Fly, one of Josh Woodward's songs as background music. Today, I looked up vocabularies which I didn't know before from the lyrics.

Lyrics

A sticky summers' day in Shepherdstown
An eagle in a thermal is a' circlin' round
Like a tire on a bike rolling down Columbus Street

Katie got a little look of hope in her eye
Arms unfold as she looked to the sky
and said, "I'm going to learn to fly around with you"

She jumped up high and she fell to the ground
Skinned her little knee and made a horrible sound
She got right up and she tried again
Smiling all the way with her unstoppable grin 


Take time, do what you're going to do 
Just smile, you're gonna make it through 
Your wings are going to spread and lift you off the ground 
Take time, do what you're going to do 
Just smile, you're gonna make it through 
Your wings are going to sprout and you will learn to fly

All the other children used to laugh at her
They say your head is in the clouds and when you come back to earth
That the men in the white coats, they will all be waiting for you

But Katie knew that there was something they didn't see
She climbed up to the top of the sycamore tree
and said, "look out world, I'm going to fly away"

She stood so tall and with all her might
She took a flying leap of an astonishing height
A wind blew through and it carried her high
and Katie knew that she was just beginning to fly 


[chorus, solo, chorus]
